you’re the one I’d always be drawn to.

no one shines brighter;
nobody else even shines in comparison.

your green glitter eyes twinkle more brilliantly than the glitter I paint on my face every morning.
I just want to glow like you do— your freckles the most dazzling constellations.
I trace them with my fingers
connect the sunspots and feel the
soft moonshine of your skin
touch your lips and breathe in
the warm sunshine of your smile

I saw that smile and I knew my life would never be the same

knew I would never be the same

one look at that dazzling joyful beautiful face, and how could your world not tilt on its axis right then and there?
once you’ve felt that touch, the warmth that lingers and never goes away,
the warmth that spreads through your whole body
that ray of light that wakes you up
enlightens your soul
shares its glow with you
from the inside out
until you glow too
once you’ve tasted that sweet song
everyone else’s world gets just a little brighter too.


i’d choose you every time.
